PS2 James Bond 007- From Russia with Love Description:
PS2 James Bond 007: From Russia with Love review: 5 stars (Finally - A James Bond Love Rush) - Oh my goodness! A 007 game worth the money and all of the hype. Lets face it, since Goldeneye for Nintendo 64, only Nightfire and No One Lives Forever were decent follow-ups. The others were total garbage.
I've only played the first four missions, but everything seems to be in order for a fun adventure. The controls are easy to learn and the graphics are good. It's nice to play as Sean Connery since Pierce is no longer Bond.
I like the fact that it'll save throughout different points in a mission, so you don't have to totally redo them from the beginning if you should happen to die. I wish you could retrace your steps back to a previous section to pick up needed armor in case you go into it less than 100%. The driving takes a little getting used to since it's very sensitive. I also like the ability to upgrade your weapons by earning bonus points by performing Bond moves.
Since the game is a direct adaptation from the movie, it makes you want to go out and rent it. Since they've hired an unattractive (nice way of saying downright ugly) actor to play as the next Bond, I'm not sure if I'd want to see his face on anything other than the cover for an Extreme Makeover. This Bond will have to go celebate.
Kudos to Electronic Arts! You did the 007 franchise justice.
1 stars (Release 'From Russia With Love' in PC format !!!) - As a tremendous James Bond fan, I'm disappointed this isn't released as a PC game. Considering it's based on From Russia With Love, a classic (i.e. older) Bond movie, EA Games may want to consider that their prospective market is also older, and more likely to have a PC than an Xbox, Game Cube or PS2. 5 stars (Classic Bond) - As a lifelong Bond fan, especially the classic films, this game is a real treat. Following in the footsteps of 'Everything or Nothing' this title allows you enter the world of James Bond as the original Bond, Sean Connery.
The graphics, gameplay and overall feel of 'From Russia With Love' is very similar to it's predecessor but with that classic touch and feel to it. The game is not overly challenging or difficult but it's pure 007 fun. The sound and music are also top notch as well. If you enjoyed 'Everything or Nothing' and are a Bond fan, this is a game that's not to be missed.
